The biggest accomplishment for September is that I finished one of my alternate goals: buy a new car. I've been putting that off for well over three years. When I finally got down to it, I ended up purchasing the very first car I took for a test drive.
Other than that, I continued going above and beyond on several of the goals I already finished. For example, I've now watched more than four times the number of movies than my original goal.
Overall Statistics
Completed: seventeen goals
In Progress: three goals + two alternate goals
Unstarted: zero!
High-achiever (reached my goal but did more anyway): thirteen goals

In November, I hope to decide on a work table for my Studio. I plan to bake some cookies for our neighbors. I'd also like to zero out my email inbox again and file my latest photos. Finally, I hope to take a photo of one thing per day that I'm grateful for.
